"Holograph, signed. William Lloyd Garrison comments that the World Convention has respectability, talent and numbers, but lacks freedom of thought. The London Committee has exclusive management of it. Wendell Phillips's motion to admit women delegates was rejected by a large majority. George Thompson urged Wendell Phillips to withdraw it. William L. Garrison, Nathaniel P. Rogers, Charles L. Remond, and William Adams refused to enroll as delegates and watched from the galleries. The New Organization has attempted to injure them, but invitations pour in from all quarters. The protest against the exclusion of women drawn up by Prof. William Adam was tabled on Nathaniel Colver's motion. Daniel O'Connell denounced American slaveholders. Charles L. Remond's speech was cheered. Garrison met Lady Byron and other noted women."
